Latitude and Longitude

Today Miss Szymanik helped us to understand Latitude and Longitude are.
We wrote this together as a class.

Latitude is an invisible horizontal line that runs around the Earth from East to West.
It begins at the equator where its coordinates are 0 degrees.

Longitude is the invisible vertical line that runs around the Earth from North to South.
The Prime Meridian is where its coordinates are 0 degrees.

Latitude and Longitude help us to find and label every place in the world.
